▲ 4 r/prozac

I'm going through literal HELL right now. Please can somebody give me advice on how to deal with this prozac withdrawal/Antidepressent Discontinuation Syndrome?

So about 13, going on 14 days ago.. I stopped taking Prozac. I was taking 40 mg for about 3 months and it was giving me really messed up symptoms while I was on it. Now.. I'm starting to have those symptoms x20 and it's unbearable. I'm extremely irritable, I have severe restlessness and anxiety. I'm having these weird body sensations that are scaring the crap out of me, I'm having brain zaps (especially when I lay down at night to sleep) I feel like I'm stuck in this dream-like state all the time, and on top of all that I'm having vertigo and dizziness. I'm extremely sensitive to sound/light and my head is killing me.

What can I do to get through this? I can't handle this anymore, I'm losing my mind. Has anybody else gone through something like this? I read online about the withdrawals of Prozac and it sounds a lot like what I'm dealing with. My psychiatrist also told me that he thought the brain zaps and dizziness was caused by the prozac which is what led to me stopping for 4 days, I ended up taking 40 mg and it made me feel worse, so that's when I stopped officially 14 days ago.

The riffs, the solos, that signature bullet for my Valentine sound!

I honestly can't stop listening to venom because the whole album is such a banger! Every song on it is amazing, the riffs, the solos, the concept to each song, it's all so cohesive and it has that signature bullet for my Valentine sound. Man I really wish bullet would do something like this again, something similar but different and unique! Venom is by far one of their best records. I didn't think so when it first came out, but after years of listening to it, It's become one of my top bullet for my Valentine albums. Who else really enjoys venom as a whole?

NEVER SETTLE!

Never settle for less than you deserve, I don't know who needs to see this right now, but it will be okay and YOU WILL get through it. I never thought I would get through it but I have. After a long, painful, and toxic relationship, I've Finally gotten over her. She played me. She literally cheated on me the entire relationship, and I stayed with her out of pure love and devotion to her. She ended up discarding me and getting not only one but a few different boyfriends while keeping me around. I let this happen for a long time because I loved her so much. Now she's just a bitter memory that I wish I didn't have. I never thought I would get through it but I finally did. I just wanted to post this for anybody that is losing hope, don't lose hope, it does get better. You are enough , you deserve to be loved. At one point in time, I didn't think I could live and be happy without her. Fast forward to now, I'm very happy and perfectly fine without her. Don't ever SETTLE FOR LESS.

Does this ever get better?

I'm coming off of Clonazepam, and my panic attacks and anxiety has been HORRIBLE. It has never been THIS BAD. I have so much trouble socializing and most days I can barely breathe. It's been more than a month without Clonazepam, and I am still feeling horrible without it. Has anybody else gone through these same feelings?

Please let me know guys thank you!
